Tatrïz

On stage, a playwright is crafting the play the audience is about to see. She gives voice to her characters: to the man she loves, who lives in a conflict zone, and to the grandmother who emerges from the pages of her script. The reality of the playwright and that of the play intertwine. The politics of a country in an extreme situation interfere with and shape the private lives of these three people from different generations and cultures. How their bodies and minds are radically upended as a result. How the geopolitics driven by the superpowers not only destroy territory in its geographical sense but also destroy psychological territories, for several generations. *Tatrïz* tells of what has been taken from these women and this man—each on their own continent—who seem distant but are in reality so close in the way the upheaval of the world has shattered their private lives. What is written in this text begins with Palestine, but resonates with many other stories, many other destinies.
